I'm really disappointed that there aren't native fire types from Sinnoh (besides the starter). The first time I played Diamond I used Rapidash. It was ok since I don't dislike it. But when I restarted the game, I decided to have only Sinnoh-native pokemon in my team and never mind if I can't have a fire type in it.

While there were short comings in these games when it came to Fire types, it wasn't too big of a problem. I like Rapidash but I didn't use one. I just found something else that could have a fire move or went without. Some variety and options would have been great though.

I'm sick of always hearing
All the sad songson the radio
All day it is there to remind
An over sensitive guy
That he'slost and alone

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you better run, better run...

I know, I'm not the only one who think about that, thanks !
So, my starter was defenitely Piplup, so, the only choice was Ponyta, but I hate it. Anyway, have a fire Pokémon in this game is useless to me.
Roark : Useless.
Gardenia : Flying type, Starly, Gust by my Drifloon and Peck of my Piplup.
Maylene : Useless. Only for Lucario, but with 2 or 3 BubbleBeam I was alright.
Crasher : Useless of the useless.
Fantima : Useless...
Byron : Only for Bronzor (I JUSTE HATE THIS POKÉMON). For the others, Water/Fight is good too.
Candice : Could be usefull, but if you have Fight/Steel and Flying type for Medicham.
Volkner : Ground, Fight for Ambipom and Thunder for Octillery...

LOL don't bother about fire-types. They have few resistances and many weaknesses. Just use a pokemon with a fire-type move(i.e garchomp w/ fire fang)--just be sure to fully train garchomp's attack stat because fire fang only has 65 base power.Another option is to breed a riolu w/ an egg move blaze kick. Skuntank's flamethrower seems okay but it's stats are mediocre.
